Best SIP Plans? How to choose them? These are some of the common questions that occur in the mind of investors when thinking of investing in Mutual Funds through a SIP or Systematic Investment plan. SIP investment is one of the most disciplined Investing options when investing in Mutual Funds.
Moreover, the minimum amount of investing in a SIP Mutual Fund is as less as INR 500. This makes investing in Top SIP plans much convenient.
Some of the benefits of investing in a SIP are:
Systematic Investment Plans also offer the benefit of the Power of Compounding. Simple interest is when you gain interest on only the principal. In the case of compound interest, the interest amount is added to the principal, and interest is calculated on the new principal (old principal plus gains). This process continues every time. Since the mutual funds in the SIP are in installments, they are compounded, which adds more to the initially invested sum.

The biggest benefit that a systematic investment plan offers is Rupee Cost Averaging which helps an individual to average out the cost of an asset purchase. While making a lump sum investment in a mutual fund a certain number of units are purchased by the investor all at once, in the case of a SIP the purchase of units is done over a long period and these are spread out equally over monthly intervals (usually). Due to the investment being spread out over time, the investment is made into the stock Market at different price points giving the investor the benefit of averaging cost, hence the term rupee cost averaging.
SIPs are a very affordable option for the masses to start savings since the minimum amount required for each installment (that too monthly!) can be as low as INR 500. Some Mutual Fund companies even offer something called a MicroSIP
where the ticket size is as low as INR 100.
Given that a systematic investment plan is spread over a long period of time, one catches all periods of the stock market, the ups and more importantly the downturns. In downturns, when fear catches most investors, SIP installments continue ensuring the investors buy low

A: No, the period when the amount will be debited from your Bank account will depend on the SIP that you have decided to invest in. You can choose to invest in a SIP right for a year period to 10+ years. Depending on the tenure of the SIP, the amount will be deducted from your account.
A: Yes, they are the same. When you read the offer document, check the SIP term carefully, as this will tell you the period/tenure they money will be deducted from your account. Choosing the tenure is completely the investor's choice.
A: If you have chosen a plan that mandates the SIP, then you have to complete that tenure. After tenure, you can withdraw the entire amount. However, if you want to renew the investment, you can change the tenure and select a different SIP with a more extended mandate.
A: You can choose to invest in flexible SIPs. These SIPs allow you to change the amount of money that you can invest during the investment period. During your tenure, you can change the amount of money you want to invest in the SIPs depending on your cash flow.
A: A long-term SIP will be one in which you invest for nearly 5 to 10 years. Ideally, long-term SIPs have more chances to give good returns.
A: It would be best if you didn't pull out of a SIP before completing its tenure. Sometimes the investment might not have an exit load, but that depends entirely on the particular SIP. If you are unsure of the investment you are making, you should start small by investing only INR 500 for one year. As your risk taking appetite increases, you can increase your investment.
